We can say without reservation that is the most bizzare movie ever made (this is a week for absolute statements.) Essentially it is about a man who turns into a machine with certain appendages that he uses to drill people, places and things. After that it becomes a little hard to follow. It is enough of a cyber-punk classic to meirt a very long wikkipedia entry which we will allow to explain this, er, film here. The movie is supposed to say something about the mechanization of society, nuclear waste and the nihilism that only a country that has experienced atomic weapons could explore.
Or to quote another professional movie critic (from IMDb) “It’s like Dali has been reborn Japanese and schizophrenic and has decided to make a film but gets confused and makes people mate with machines and he tries to film the result but the camera has overdosed on amphetamines.”
Yes.
